I just wanted to let you know that i am still around and feeling ok. I have been in the hospital twice. I just had a stint put in my liver, this is a temporary fix, but i am hoping it gives me sometime to keep fighting. I am not in as much pain as i was, so this is good news, just have to gain some weight back. Hope everyone is doing well, remember HOPE...stay strong.....love Meena

    MEEEEEEEEENA!!!!!!! Thank
    MEEEEEEEEENA!!!!!!! Thank you so very much for posting~ I know you have seen just how much we have been worried about you ( as we haven't heard from you in a bit) and the reason course is because you as so loved here on the boards by the Kindred Spirits!!!

    Of course I am saddened to know you were hospitalized twice; hopefully though all of the treatment, and especialy the liver stent will absolutely give you both quality AND quantity of life to keep you in the fight for a long, long, long time!

    I have some extra weight I have been carrying around~ I am more than happy to give it to you! Not even a loan; I don't need the excess back ever! Anything to help one of my favorite sisters.

    Hugs and love,
    Chen♥

    Good to hear from you
    I am kinda new(March) on here and have learned so much.

    So nice to hear from you.Everyone has been wondering how you are doing.Glad there is a temp fix for your liver and something later.

    OMG someone else trying to gain weight.Me too!!!!I never could gain weight.I am a energetic person.On the go all the time.BUT I want to gain 10 lbs.That's all but impossible.I have a saying"If it says FAT FREE it is NOT for ME". I guess we need to eat the food high in calories. I would feel better about myself if I had just 10 more lbs.I would rather be a few lbs overweight than underweight.

    Take care of yourself and check in once in a while.We all are thinking of you.

    Hope and Prayers Meena!
    Incase you didn't notice, your pink sisters here have been praying as hard as they can for you and anxiously waiting to read an update from you. We were about to sent a posse out for you! lol

    I am very sad to read that you have been hospitalized twice. Meena, I just don't know what to say. You have shown more courage than anyone I have ever seen on this board ever. And, you are loved and admired more than anyone on this board ever!

    The word warrior, fighter and determined are what you are! You just keep fighting Meena and the pink sisters will keep praying for you.

    I can't thank you enough for posting. We were all so worried about you. Please continue to post and check in with us.


    Love you Meena and will always keep you in my prayers,


    Sue :)

    So Good To Hear From You, Dear Meena
    As you can see on the post from VickiSam, we have all been waiting on some word from you. She even has Greta on the search. You simply cannot hide from this group of Kindred Spirits. So sorry to hear of your hospitalizations, but glad to hear that the liver stint has given you some much need time to heal. We just missed your cyber smiles and encouragement. Again, so glad to hear from you. Keep giving it your best, and know we are all here, sending best wishes and lots of good thoughts. Hugs, Judy

    Meena, it is so good to hear from you and so happy that the stint is helping with the pain. Hope is one of the good 4 letter words and any extra time we can get is one step closer to turning this ugly disease into a chronic illness!
    You keep fighting and I will keep praying.

    So nice to hear from you our beloved Meena!
    We have been praying that you are finding strength somewhere, somehow to fight and recover from this chapter of your battle.

    Hospitalized twice -- sorry to hear that! Happy that your doctor found a way to alleviate part of your on going pain.

    You are my inspiration, as I recall all the kind words you written to me during the early part of my journey -- they infused strength and courage for me to stay on course and continue the fight.

    Miracles happen, and I have been praying that our Lord provides one for you, dear Sister.

    Know that I think of you always, and will contiue to pray.

    Hope, Happiness, Strength, Courage and Peace.

    Meena,

    it is so nice to hear from you. As you can see we love and worry about you, it
    is SOOO good to hear you are still fighting strong.

    I am sorry to hear about your hospitalization but glad that they could help
    you get better. It's time to make a list of your favorite foods and I hope you
    can keep them down long enough so you can put on a few pound. I would
    love to welcome you to the Chubby club.

    Love,
    Ayse

    Great to read your post, Meena
    And I'm so glad your pain has lessened. You are one tough cookie and your attitude is both wonderful and inspiring.

    You have taught all of us how to stay strong and keep moving forward with grace. Thank you.
